Words come so easily,
Drawn from my nether realms,
Drawn from my dreams.
Scrawled across a whiteness,
Giving life to a need.
The need to tell a tale,
The need to be heard,
The need of forever
And maybe never as well.
They clamber their way
And gasp their first breathe.
I want to call them back,
For they are all I have.
But once in the open,
Never to return.
The word has been spoken,
The word has been writ,
Etched on this world,
Etched in this world.

Giving life to a need...

I want to call them back,
For they are all I have.

Well done!

This is true.  Our words are what we are to others.  I thoughts are what we are to ourselves.  Joyce
